Hi Everyone
My baby is home, safe and unharmed!!!
I want to extend my sincere gratitude to all of you for your concern, interest and support
in retrieving this most valued part of my world. Many of you I don't even know, but on
the power of Cyndi's word, you were willing to help. That reinforces my belief that
all musicians are part of the same "extended" family, and I am grateful to be
counted among you.
It turns out that the thief pawned it at a neighbourhood store within the hour of stealing
it. He obviously had no idea what he had as he only got $70 for it!!! After all, that is a
cheap price for a 1990 Fender Precision fretless, set up with an active EMG jazz pick up
configuration. In fact, it is the only one like it that I have ever seen.
So, in this case, all ends well. I will be much more careful in the future.
Lesson learned.
My best to all.
Dave

I sent this to Bob, the owner of Class Axe Guitars in Kemptville. I also spoke with him
this morning.

Subject: Fender Fretless Electric Bass Stolen Yesterday NOV 20
Im sending this to every person I know who is involved in music. Ive left the names
visible so we can minimize repeat sends. Im hoping you will forward it on to all of your
musician friends as well.
My friend Dave Johnstons car was broken into and the guitar stolen yesterday afternoon.
It is a rare and treasured instrument and there is likely only one in Ottawa. If you see
one in a music shop, pawn shop or see someone playing one, it could be Daves please
contact me or Dave, contact info is below. We have a chance of finding this guitar if we
get the word out fast enough and far enough. Please help and forward this message. It has
been reported to the police and Dave and I will be contacting every music and pawn shop in
town.
